Motorola understands that Android users like to know when their next update is coming — particularly if it’s a big one — so the company has erected a new webpage that allows customers to track their Android 5.0 Lollipop upgrade to release. The tracker covers all handsets from the Droid Maxx and Droid Mini to the latest Moto X and Moto G.

“We know what you’re thinking. “Will my device receive an upgrade? When? How?” Never fear…all the information’s right here,” Motorola’s new webpage reads.

Right now, the tracker features all of the handsets Motorola has confirmed will receive a Lollipop update, including the first- and second-generation of Moto X and Moto G, the Moto G with 4G LTE, the Droid Maxx, and the Droid Mini. Other devices could be added later, Motorola says, but these are the ones that are part of its upgrade plans right now.

To track your Lollipop update, you first need to select where you purchased your device from, and then which device you have. The tracker will then tell you which stage your upgrade is at. As things stand, the status for each device simply confirms a Lollipop update is coming — but we’ll get more detailed information as the updates near release.
